In case you happen to get home from work yesterday and passed out at your computer, chances are you heard about Google’s newest gadget, the Chromecast, which has blitzkrieg’d the American consumer goods market like Poland in the 30’s.

On today’s episode of NewsDesk with Kristin Feledy, we’ll be speaking with Wikibon’s Stu Miniman, and we’ll get his take on what’s got everyone so excited.

We’ll also be sure to ask him the important questions, like who are the current competitors in the market, and how the new device differs from that of the current industry leaders. He’ll even give us his insight as to any predictions for Google, as well as any other gadgets coming over the horizon. There’s that, and more from Mark Hopkins later on this morning’s NewsDesk with Kristin Feledy.
